Alibris Reviews Summary
Alibris enjoys a generally positive reputation among customers, particularly for its wide selection of used books at competitive prices and reliable shipping. Many customers appreciate the timely delivery and the ability to track orders, contributing to overall satisfaction. However, concerns arise regarding the variability in book conditions, with some items not meeting expectations, and delays in shipping for urgent needs. Additionally, the separate shipping fees for each book can deter purchases. Despite these issues, the platform remains a favored choice for many due to its extensive inventory and user-friendly website.

The site was difficult to work through. I repeatedly had to go back and fix my entries and I was unable to set up an account because it kept throwing me out of the password set up. I needed the movie as a gift or I would have left the site and used another to order.
I use Alibris for all my research projects. Always the best price, and easy to use.
Billing address problems I didn't understand! Overall good!
I so enjoy shopping with Alibris. Prices are great, tracking is handy, and my books always arrive on time-or ahead of schedule.
Was not able to do much choosing between all the books available
Always a first rate delight!
Best selection... best service
I am a long time customer and I have never been disappointed.

Price changed on first order. Had to go back to list.
Straight forward, efficient, good info, love recycling books!
Not realizing shipping cost would only be removed at the end of checkout caused me to try several times = inconvenient
But free shipping is great, thanks
Too many emails. Website should allow to get rid of old shipping addresses, old addresses for self
I HATE to be hectored... and that's what your website does. Every time I edit an order, your site automatically checks the "Send me exciting emails regarding..." or some such rot. If I want to be on your list, I'll sign up for it. Soon I'll no longer come to you, I'll go to Abebooks.com or some third party.
Hard to see the remove button.
Can't go back to the site from inside the checkout process.
Sighed in, found my book for under five dollars to my door and was done inside of a few minutes…. Superb!
I looked for the CD purchased, and found it at very high prices. Not here! Fair price and easy FIRST TIME purchase... I will be back!
All good. Clear. Fast. No website glitches. Love alibris
I am very annoyed I expected free shipping but then did not get it.
I like the ability to browse numerous sellers at once. I will definitely be back.
I thought the shipping was incredibly high & I didn't spend $50. I don't like that. It also doesn't give an estimated delivery date.
Delighted to find a hard to find book in new condition.
Glad to find the Gordon Ramsay's book online. I just hope that they are in really good condition.
I feel like the add to cart and check out experience on mobile platform (google chrome via iOS) could be improved.
I like having the choice of which seller to purchase from
I absolutely love Alibris! I do almost all my book shopping here!
Website is extra-helpful, unlike many websites!
